The cradle cap is back

Sigh. The cradle cap is back, so we’re back to oiling her head and brushing her scalp every day. It’s also still on her eyebrows. How can such a cute little baby be so scaly? She had a bout of baby acne last week, and now her hair is coming out. I wonder how much hair she’ll lose – she’d look completely different with short hair.

A fresh warm towel. Mmmm.

She’s smiling up a storm these days, and giggling/laughing if you’re amusing enough. She has gotten the hang of reaching out to grasp for things, but she’s still working on her aim.

She about 11lb 4oz now and I think she’s hit some sort of threshold with me – my back aches and my shoulders kind of hurt. Is it that she’s heavier, or have I just been sleeping funny? Perhaps I need to work on my weight training? (I do mostly cardio at the gym)

Kai’s eyes are amazing to watch, I love that she loves to look at things, and loves to track her mommies around the room. She watches Mrs Bean leave the room – she’ll follow her with her eyes and watch her go out the door. I don’t know where she thinks mommy is going, but she knows she’s not in the room anymore.

A new development: explosive poop. For some reason, her poops have been explosive lately, going up the back of the diaper, and almost exiting the diaper (hasn’t happened…yet!) Luckily, she lets us know exactly when she is pooping (“uuuuuuh!!!” and a distant focused stare), so we can be ready to change her ASAP.

I’m amazing at how different Kai is, after just 2.5 months. I love that she’s becoming more interactive, I love playing with her!
